Independence, Mo.

Jet Tryon from Oak Grove High School and Wolfgang Clapper from Grain Valley High School, representing the MoWest Wresting Club were among the final placers from Team Missouri last month at the prestigious ASICS/Vaughan Nationals at the Fargo Dome in Fargo, North Dakota.

Tryon, wrestling in the 100-pound class of the Junior divisions, took fifth in the Grego-Roman competition and seventh in freestyle. Clapper, a state runner-up last season for Grain Valley, took eighth at 126 pounds in the Cadet Greco-Roman division.
